Walk Home With Me; Life's Journey

Updated on December 29, 2013

I walk along the highway of a life time journey;

I started with both my parents and siblings walking side by side with me;

Together we walked in life's wide road;

With spirits high in hope, faith, love and security.



Walk On


For whatever reasons, I suddenly found my self walking alone;

My parents and siblings went their own ways, to each his own;

I wanted to turn back and trail them;

But I was confused whose road to follow;

For each was trailing a road apart from one another.


I screamed to them to wait for me;

Or to follow the road I take, but they obviously never heard me;

Instead I heard a voice which said;

"Follow your own path and stick to it."

And when I tried once more to look their way;

Before my eyes they just faded away.


I am so lonely and afraid now that I am all alone on this wide and dusty road;

I know not what to do;

I just know that I have to move on;

Hoping that somewhere along the way;

Our paths would meet and we will be together once more.

And so I walk on with a heavy heart;

When I notice that someone else is walking beside me;

He holds my hands as he says "Fear not; I am with you."

In my confusion I welcome him; for is it not that in this journey, two is better than one?

I need his company, or any good company.


He seems to be attentive to my needs;

He provides me food when I am hungry and water to quench my thirst;

He shields me from the cold and from the rain and even from the biting heat of the sun;

He helps me to take another step onward when my legs are tired and weary;

And carry me with his strong arms when I cannot make it on my own;

For all the good things that he does to me;

How can't I be convinced that he is my perfect mate throughout this endless journey?


We continue to walk in this life's pathway;

This time I carry our daughter while he holds our son who walks beside him;

My joy and confidence cannot be contained for having a family of my own walking with me;

The stranger that used to be is now the loving father of my children.

But then life's journey have twists and turns;

Sometimes the road splits in two or more;

And when I turn to look, I find out that one is missing along the way.



We are walking in this journey for a decade more;

Now I realize that It's just my grown up children and I walking in this journey;

And now I walk on with my children by my side;

With hearts full of hope for the bright home ahead;


But once again in life's hi-way; there are always crossroads and twists and turns;

Until I find once again that my company is another stranger;

The stranger who finally walks home with me.
